  • Publication number: 20250150825
    Abstract: An example computing device accesses a resource allocation network service utilizing a wireless network connection in accordance with embedded SIM (eSIM) functionality to identify and reserve computing resources. The computing device transmits a request to the resource allocation server that includes computing device profile information stored in the eSIM. The resource allocation network service processes the requests and receives additional profile information from the identified physical computing resource. The resource allocation network service then establishes a reservation and generates allocation information that includes credential information and is sent to the requesting computing device and the physical computing resource. When the computing device attempts to access the computing resource (e.g., the workstation), the physical computing resource authenticates the computing device based allocation information transmitted by the computing device.

  • Publication number: 20250150600
    Abstract: A method that reorders partitioning candidates or motion vectors based on template matching costs for geometric prediction mode (GPM) is provided. A video coder receives data to be encoded or decoded as a current block of a current picture of a video. The current block is partitioned into first and second partitions by a bisecting line defined by an angle-distance pair. The video coder identifies a list of candidate prediction modes for coding the first and second partitions. The video coder computes a template matching (TM) cost for each candidate prediction mode in the list. The video coder receives or signals a selection of a candidate prediction mode based on an index that is assigned to the selected candidate prediction mode based on the computed TM costs. The video coder reconstructs the current block by using the selected candidate prediction mode to predict the first and second partitions.
